You Matter to Me with Bee Arty

Hi everyone how are you? Today I am here to share with you my latest creation using the stunning Bee Arty Grateful Heart collection.

This is still working off my first layout and this time its evolving the layout using some different products and adding a little bit more mixed media into your layout.

#72/365

So you will need two sheets of Together.

Keep one as your background.

Fussy cut out the main part of the flowers and you can set aside the rest for another layout.

Stamp a number of daisies from Pretty Posy Stamps with some archival inks and set aside. We will be colouring these in a minute.

While you have your stamp supplies out stamp the large magnolias from the Perfect Petals, and the one with the curved flower spray, also use archive ink. You will need to fussy cut all these flowers.

Now onto the colouring..... today I am using Colour Shimmer Dusts - Colbolt and Velvet.

Mix a small amount in a palette and to create a third colour use a bit of both. This will act as a blender.

Mist your daisies with water and start dropping the Shimmers onto them.

While waiting for the flowers to dry..... Add some of your roses with foam mount over the top of the background sheet.

Grab a brush and start adding Colour shimmer- Colbolt to your background, it will sit on the top of the paper for a little bit, but this will give you time to move it around the page and to get it where you need it to go.

Keep adding ink to the background over sections of the dry ink and it will make sections more intense...

Once the background is dry you are now onto the construction, mount your photo up a couple of layers and then add the flowers around the photo starting with your coloured daisies.
